How to Make Napkin Rings for Your Next Dinner Party

Here’s how to make napkin rings to add a little crafty touch to your table.

We don’t use a ton of paper towels around here, but there are certain jobs that still have me reaching for the roll. See: cleaning the cat box. Any toilet paper roll craft works just as well with a paper towel roll. You just cut that tube in half or thirds, and you’re ready to rock! You can get six to eight DIY napkin rings from one paper towel tube, depending on how wide you cut them.

1. Cut your paper tube into approximately 1″ wide rings. You’ll end up with 6-8 pieces. It’s OK if the tube gets a little bit smushed during the cutting process. Just shape the rings. Once you paint, cover, and Mod Podge, your perfect little circles will be back.

3. Cover your rings with washi tape. Unless you are the most accurate cutter in town, your tape is going to stick up above the top of your paper rings. That’s ok! Just lay the tape, then use your scissors to carefully trim off the excess.

4. Paint the insides and outsides with your Mod Podge. Let the rings dry completely, then do a second coat of Mod Podge. Let them dry overnight before setting your DIY napkin rings on the table.
